She chuckled.

“What?”

“You! You’re so understanding. You really are too good to be true.”

He laughed. “Keep looking for the downsides. I’m sure you’ll find them.”

“I hope not.”

He raised his eyebrows as he planted a kiss on the top of her head. He wasn’t sure what she meant by that, but he hoped that maybe she was starting to feel the same way about him as he was about her.

Chapter Sixteen

It took Piper a minute to remember where she was when she opened her eyes. She smiled when it hit her. Cameron’s arm lay across her waist, and she turned over. He was awake.

“Good morning.”

“Good morning. What time is it?”

“It’s early. How would you feel about stopping in to see Gene before we leave?”

“I’d like that.” She wanted to see how he was doing, but she was also a little anxious. She had a big day ahead of her, flying a new plane and her new boss around. She made to get out of bed. She had a lot of flight planning to do.

He tightened his arm around her. “Are you okay?”

She relaxed against him. “I am, or at least I will be. This is a lot to take in, a lot to do.”

“I know.” He dropped a kiss on her lips. “I don’t want you to feel like it’s all too much. I can cancel my meetings if you want?”

“No! No, you mustn’t do that. I’m good with it. I just need to prepare, do some planning.”

“Okay, but you let me know what you need. Tell me if there’s anything I can do to help.”

“There is something.”

“What?”

“I’m going to need to pick up some clothes. I packed a bag for last night, but I was expecting to go home today.”

He smiled. “I can take care of that.”

“How?” She had to laugh. “You don’t just happen to carry around women’s clothes, do you?”

He laughed with her. “No, but I can call Mary Ellen at the office. She can pick something up for you.”

Piper made a face. She wasn’t sure how she felt about that.

He seemed to understand. “You’ll like Mary Ellen; she’s awesome.”

She nodded.

“She already likes you. I’ve told her all about you.”

Piper smiled. “You have?”

He nodded. “She knew there was something going on with me when I kept going back to Summer Lake every weekend. She wanted to know what it was, and I told her about you.”

“And what did you tell her?”
